A great paper outlining a green trade and investment strategy for Africa by my Blavatnik School of Government colleagues #MIFNairobi #GlobalAfrica William Samoei Ruto, PhD

Eloquent President William Samoei Ruto, PhD “as a continent we must take charge of our destiny” Africa should not accept being consigned to loss and damage discussions (100bn) but should be shaping investment discussions (100tn)… similarly on security, and debt #MIFNairobi

A thought from #MIFNairobi Ibrahim Mayaki “Behind every narrative is a strategy. In 1980s Africa failing gave rise to structural adjustment. Later Africa rising led to investment”.

So proud to be listening to Blavatnik School of Government alumna Valary Mumbo making the case for running for office Mo Ibrahim Foundation Governance Weekend
